The Gasser community has lost another Great Gasser Legend today.
Al Zerberini passed away due to health complications this morning.
Al raced the 1940 Bee-Line Willys out of the Bee-Line Automotive shop in Stamford Ct.

Al started racing the Willys in 1960.He won the US Nationals A/Gas class in 1960 at Detroit Dragway.He continued to race the Willys through 1968.
Al was also a very successful business man with Bee-line Auto Center and a great family man.
Al was a “Living Legend” on the East coast.
As most of you know, I own the original Bee-Line Willys that Al raced. It still retains most of it’s original paint from the 60’s.
He will be missed by all of the Gasser family.
Godspeed…..
